Baerlocher to Spotlight at K 2019 High-Performance Additives for Recycling, RST Technology, Successful Cases, Erema Demo Day
Munich, Germany – September 12, 2019 – As part of its participation at K 2019, Baerlocher GmbH, a leading global supplier of plastics additives, will showcase in Hall 5, Stand A21 its industry-leading Baeropol® T-Blends for recycling, the company’s RST (Resin Stabilization Technology) family of customizable stabilizer packages and several case studies showcasing Baerlocher’s successful collaborations with plastics industry partners. The company has also teamed up with Erema, a leading recycling machinery manufacturer, and the recycling technology company APK to conduct live demonstrations that will take place in the Erema Circonomic Centre, located in the outdoor area (FG 09.1) at K 2019. Baerlocher’s stand will feature the company’s 100%-active Baeropol T-Blend products, key enablers that can help solve various recycling issues. These dust-free, easy-to-implement additives are based on Baerlocher’s RST-platform that works in synergy with traditional antioxidants. Baerlocher will also share its most recent and ongoing RST advancements, including the introduction of new grades that offer enhanced properties previously not associated with traditional recycling. Additionally, the company will share successful case studies on a range of collaborations. One such story, features the improvements that Baerlocher’s additives had on the bubble stability and increasing recycled content in an LDPE film. Other case studies showcase how Baerlocher’s additives can help upstream polyolefin companies offer resins with recycled content, and also improve the durability of agricultural drainage pipe extruded from recycled resins to extend its useful life. The live demonstrations by Erema and APK will reveal how Baerlocher’s additive technologies can enable the upcycling of low-value, difficult-to-recycle consumer film waste into a material suitable for profitable products used in the construction sector. These demonstrations will take place in the Erema "Circonomic Centre" on the following dates and times:
• Wednesday, October 16, from 2.30 p.m. - 5.30 p.m.
